favelas

Image result for favelaIn my world its people just like the favelas. Some people sell drugs and a lot of stuff! People around the world have to sell drugs to get money! Favelas people live in bad homes. They don't got any food. Some of them don't got no cloths. Thats sad because they don't get educated. In my world its homeless people and favelas are homeless too! People die over drugs in favelas and in my world! Favelas should get educated and stay off the streets and thats the same for my world too. We need to keep people off the streets and away from drugs!!....






         My blog is about community people helping other people & if someone gets hurt and someone comes along and helps that person. This picture shoes someone helping someone walk em that's part of community
I think that people who visit the favela/slums gives them sort of point of veiw and sort of out look on how they live and what its like being there, living there and basically see how they struggle with the violence and the police brutality that happens on a day to day basis.

                                              MUSIC:

Image result for music has powerI believe that music can influence and inspire people. I think that music had and still have a lot of control over the years, music can change a person by the way they think.which in some ways can be good and also bad, followed with making someone do stuff out of ordinary because if they hear the person that they are listening to that they find as a idol then they would want to be like them. But isn't bad there are some good artist out there like Imagine dragons who leave a message that no matter what you been through or darkness that you have don't there is someone who can love like no other and that he cares so much about you. Or The Script who believe that you can be anything that your heart desires so dont let anyone say you can't because that is so not true. People who makes music talking about doing the right thing, sadly their's not that many artist anymore because of how the world is.

The Impact Of Music

The impact of music today is changing the world dramatically. Not all music is like that, but most music today is not the best. Honestly I still listen to music that is not good for me but I still choose to. In all reality types of music is changing someone's life right now it could make them go of the edge. Lets say like sad songs people usually listen to them when they are "In Their Feelings". Those songs can make a person feel better but it could also go the other way. If music wasn't as sexual, or about fighting I don't even know how some of these artist would keep there jobs. Sometimes the songs they sing could really offensive its just not appropriate especially when little kids listen to it. Also they haven't learned much yet so they are more likely to listen to the songs take some words and act the way they do in the song so music can be very harmful now a days. I'm not going to lie back when music still has been like it is now but to me it got worse.
Music can make people do a lot of things. Like it could change someone's mood. Or maybe help them work out. Music helps me clean up, do school work and etc. Everyone has their own music they like. Also can make you feel sad happy mad. Sometimes music really move people. Music can start movements. Music sometimes push's people to do things. Like to play music before play sports so I can get t'd. That's how music can make people do a lot of things.


Not all hip hop music is bad for young people because not all hip hop music is bad. Some hip hop music talk about different types of things rather its gang related, street violence, while others are more about an individuals life or telling a story. Some hip hop teaches kids to quit the violence for example "Put the Guns Down" by King Louie a Chicago rapper. In this song hes talking about put the guns down, stop the violence in Chicago. King Louie says this about Chicago "the devil is working overtime". His music inspires me and many other young teenagers and kids to stop street violence while other hip hop music is making videos showing drugs, loaded guns, even kids holding a gun and pointing it at the camera. This is a bad influence for kids today. I believe that there is a huge battle between violent and non violent hip hop music going on today in the world, only one can win and only one can change how the world will be in the future.
